"The Sacrifice That Keeps on Giving"

 

“The Sacrifice That Keeps on Giving”

 

We are made right with God by placing our faith in Jesus Christ.  And this is true for everyone who BELIEVES, no matter who we are.    Romans 3:22

 

Today is GOOD FRIDAY, when I was a child, growing-up, I could not understand why people called this GOOD FRIDAY, when it was the time that Jesus was SEVERLY BEATEN, and CRUCIFIED, or KILLED on an OLD RUGGED CROSS, so what was so GOOD about that?  Once I was SAVED, I learned that it was GOOD because Jesus SACRIFICED His LIFE to be able to SAVE mankind from their sins and an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, once they are there. 

 

Because EVERYONE SINS; we ALL FALL short of the MARK of GOD’S GLORIOUS standard.   And yet because of GOD’S UNDESERVED KINDNESS, He declares that those who are TRUE BELIEVERS are RIGHTEOUS, through Jesus Christ, who became the ONE and ONLY ULTIMATE SACRIFICE, who was able to FREE US from the PENALTY of our sins.  He presented JESUS as the SACRIFICE for SIN. And people are made RIGHT with God when they BELIEVE that JESUS SACRIFICED His LIFE, by SHEDDING His PRECIOUS BLOOD and through His DEATH and RESURRECTION, He has done what NO OTHER PERSON can do, that is to SAVE MANKIND from their SINS and to DECLARE them RIGHTEOUS in GOD’s Sight.  And to GIVE to them ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  JESUS CHRIST, the SACRIFICE that KEEPS ON GIVING, from ETERNITY PAST to ETERNITY FUTURE His act of REDEMPTION is the ONLY WAY for MANKIND to BE SAVED. 

 

Have you ACCEPTED GOD’S ONE and ONLY SACRIFICE, the ONLY SACRIFICE that KEEPS ON GIVING?  If not, you are destined to spend your ETERNITY in HELL, and MISS spending it in HEAVEN. You have the OPPORTUNITY NOW to change that DESTINY.  You MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your sinful life-style, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART. And CONFESS your sins to HIM and ASK Him for His FORGIVENESS.  BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST ACCEPT His Gift of SALVATION by ACCEPTING the ONLY SACRIFICE that KEEPS on GIVING.  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON.  Make this a REAL GOOD FRIDAY!!!
